titleFavourites

Projects, workbooks and views can all be added to your favourites, this is a useful way of saving your most used workbooks all in one place. It is recommended that workbooks, rather than views, are added to favourites due to the titles of workbooks being more descriptive.

To favourite a workbook click the star next to the workbook title. Once you've added a workbook to your favourites it can be accessed using the navigation panel, they are also displayed on the home page. 

To remove a workbook from your favourites click the star again.


Favourites can also be accessed while in another workbook using the favourites menu. This has a search function to easily find the workbook you're looking for.

titleFilters

To amend the data visible within a view you can use the filters. This won't permanently remove any data, it just hides what's displayed.

For some filters you may need to click 'apply' which will appear at the bottom of the filter, other filters will change the data displayed automatically.

If you change a filter accidentally you can use the 'undo my last action' button to undo the change.  You can also use the 'reset view' button to completely reset all the filters back to the default.
